Gazing into the future

 Heidi Alcock (center), senior program manager for Detroit Future City, was the keynote speaker at a Tuesday, Oct. 8, event sponsored by the Women’s Caucus Group at Jaffe, Raitt, Heuer, and Weiss in Southfield.

Alcock spoke about the organization’s initiatives to reshape Detroit, discussing the “strategic framework that will help a variety of stakeholders – community groups, philanthropy, business entities and economic developers, government, investors, and more – make decisions around a shared vision that improves the quality of life for all in the city.”  

Her appearance was part of the Wine and Cheese Series that the Women’s Caucus Group holds periodically throughout the year.
